By The President of the National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS), Danielson Akpan has been impeached for financial impropriety.
Before his impeachment, Akpan who assumed office as NANS president in July 2018 had served beyond his tenure of 12 months, leading to complaints from other officials and stakeholders.
Akpan was impeached by the Senate Arm of the Association at an emergency Senate meeting which held on Tuesday October 13.
He was impeached after being indicted for financial impropriety, diverting student’s COVID-19 palliatives and concealing information relevant to help the growth of the organisation and the development of the country.
It was also alleged that he received huge sums of money from some government agencies, including the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) for student’s COVID-19 palliatives and diverted the money.
